Did ya go to uni? if yes what was your major( Just curious randomly!)

Nope... :pimp

mOST RICH PPL didnt! , I wonder if that has anything to say about education!!:1orglaugh

How early do most people learn about capitalization?

paid plus interest.

No, I went to College for Accounting and Finance for 3 years and I graduated in 2008.

Interesting fact...Out of all the very wealthy people I know only 1 is a University graduate.

I Have a masters in Artificial intelligence and computer science but can't decide If learned more doing business or University!

Yes.

It changed a number of times from my first year(s) and what I have originally planned. But in the end, it was a B.A. in, Communications (Major), Mass Media (minor).

:thumbsup

uni is a waste of fucking time. it teaches you how to think like everyone else. in business you have to have a hustlers mentality and people who go to uni for the majority do not have that mentality.

the best is people who go to uni and think they are guaranteed a good job. people do not give a fuck about that piece of paper these days they only care if you can make them $$$$$$$

finished Comsci for 4 years in college

Nope didn't have the cash when I should have.too late for me now

Masters in Electrical and Computer Engineering :thumbsup

Of all the crazy things - Master of Science degree in Physiology and Biophysics ~ 1995

big difference between going and graduating with a degree....

I went and graduated. Luckily it's all free here

yES I WENT TO A UNIVERISTY.

Sh0 d1d massa wUkinz. m0 biscitz sir? please donnn whup me again massa.. .

The only time I went to a Uni was to meet girls or see rock bands. Left school at 14 and have not done so badly. :thumbsup

:2 cents:

Had to drop out of high school my junior year, due to external circumstances; not that I feel I missed out on anything. Took some time to crawl up to where I had some capital to invest, but today I've earned more than anyone I know. Probably not because I'm the smartest or the hardest working, but because I didn't get distracted by dumb shit.

It helps if you can spell [or type] university correctly. =p

B.Sc. Mathematics

also got a minor in ba

it helps me check stats..lol

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh have not slept in 36 hours!

yes..double majored in sociology and politics

if you're talking about business then maybe, but it depends on what sort of career you want, you can't be an engineer, doctor or lawyer etc without higher education.

Its true that entrepreneurs often dont have traditional education, but of those who do succeed youll find that the highly educated ones tend to succeed in a much bigger way. I actually am a university graduate but my academic record is mediocre and I regret it.

You can almost always tell if someone is university educated versus someone who isnt..... its just so obvious and it does impact upon the quality of life you have. I hate to break it to the nay sayers but its a fact.

Sarah didnt need to tell me she about her sociology/politics degree for me to know she's done some higher education. On the other hand, I can tell you hands down (without knowing for a fact) that ScottMcD is not a university graduate.

That said, to a certain extend I do agree with you that education can teach you in a very conformist and conventional way.

Overall though, its way better to have a university education than not..... that should be obvious.

For around a week or so... boring.

I went to Purdue : )

quoted for truth. 2 minutes into a conversation it becomes very obvious.

i did a 4 year honors degree in genetics, with a minor in philosophy. i worked for a year in a university genetics lab in my 4th year, planning on doing a masters, but decided it just wasn't for me. by year 4, i'd started some avs sites, and never looked back. the rest is history.

no there is no fact. and yes you can tell who has a university degree.

they work a 9-5 and like to talk about philosophy way to much. i mean to spend all that cash to answer a question with a question is really worth it.

i taught myself everything i know, at 15 i was learning business. i have never read a book for my field or a manual i never needed to. i am so far ahead of people in this field that went to school it is not even funny.

was i supposed to go to school and go backwards just to have a piece of paper?

why cant you people just admit it is a waste of time? so she has a sociology/politics degree to work in the adult field? i do not follow.

free information is so prevalent these days. times have changes. if i wanted to become a plumber i can spend a day and teach myself studying on the internet for free. i do not see the point in going to class and being taught that same info.

to many people who i know who went to university have the same track of mind. they are unable to think outside the box. to many of them have the exact same opinions as their professor.

if anything this recession has taught me how right i am. your degree is no backup. people like to think it is but you are not guaranteed anything with it. the people that not only survive and thrive in these times are the people who have creativity and school cannot teach you that.

if you went and enjoyed it then good for you, i maybe would take a class oneday. but to many people with one talk as if it is a guarantee or they have that elitist mentality that they are somehow better because of a paper.

Internet and IT over here :)

Probably

maybe

i graduated too

Yes. Wrote my thesis on vampire legends as a paradigm for aggressive human sexuality. Go figure; that turned out to actually be relevant for my job.

Nope. Didn't see the point...

Yes i did

finance degree
Give me your money, i'll invest it for you (in hookers and blow)

I got my BS in Management Information Systems after I spent 8 years in the Marine Corps and plan on starting an MBA in the fall. Did I do it to help me get a job? No. My reason for getting a college education was/is simple, I was the first in my family to even graduate high school, so, I wanted to take it a step further and get a college education.

Just graduated with a 4 year degree in computer information systems. Do I think it taught me a great deal and guaranteed me a job? No way, there are kids in High School that know way more then myself when it comes to database/network/programming.

Was it a great fucking time and an experience I will never forget? You betcha, would do it again in a heartbeat. I feel bad for people that don't get to at least try to experience how fun college is. Obviously its not for everyone and some hate it, fair enough.

Mathematics

Very nice :thumbsup
